What is Baby Bottle Tooth Decay?

Baby Bottle Tooth Decay is caused by frequent exposure of a child’s teeth for long periods of time to liquid containing sugars. Especially when your baby falls asleep with a bottle containing formula, milk or juice. The liquid pools around the front ar or other sugars to acid, which causes the decay.

Instructions for parents:

  • Oral checks should be performed by parents to detect early signs of the disease.
  • Brown spots along the gumline on your child’s teeth are signs which should alert you. Those are initial cavities which you should get filled.
  • If your child prefers soft foods, frowns or cries when eating cold, sweet, or hard foods, they should be checked for tooth decay.

By the time tooth decay is noticed it may be too late and crowns, pulp therapy, or even extraction of the decayed teeth may be necessary. As a result, your child may have crooked or crowded teeth, and poor oral health.
